Tatiana Bilbao named 2019 winner of the $100,000 Marcus Prize


Mexican architect Tatiana Bilbao has been selected as the recipient of the 2019 Marcus Prize. Awarded every two years by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Architecture and Urban Planning, the $100,000 award recognizes architects deemed to be "on a trajectory to greatness" with a cash prize and supported design studio. Bilbao follows Jeanne Gang, who was selected in 2017 for her proven, exceptional practice.

Selected from a pool of nominees from 14 countries and five continents, Bilbao was chosen because her work "has something for everyone," said jury member Matt Messner. “Along with complex social and cultural considerations, her work is formally and materially rich. She is an organizer, instigator and thought leader in her native Mexico, as well as around the world through her teaching and practice,” he added.
